I am trying to install an old game called Nox in Linux under WINE. I have tried running setup.exe from both the main directory as well as from the setup directory. The screen goes black and I get a box with "DirectX Error" as a title and the message is "Action not supported". Can someone tell me how to fix that ... I see that others have gotten Nox to run with out this error .... Thanks... --- Derek Tombrello www.RobotsAndComputers.com

Post complete terminal output when running installation. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log Also try using virtual desktop mode (enable from winecfg).

Try reinstalling them. -- -Austin[/quote] ummm... how do I go about that? Still learning Linux [Embarassed] lspci | grep VGA returns this: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) By changing the audio driver that WINE is using, I was able to fix the stuttering problem, and everything installed perfectly. It won't let me play it though. I guess the video drivers could cause that? Thanks...
